Cale Parks

Add Date: August 4

Artist: Cale Parks

Album: To Swift Mars (EP)

Label: Polyvinyl

Genre: Rock, experimental rock, synth pop

Comments: A very solid 6-song set from Aloha drummer Cale Parks, To Swift Mars is the followup to his 2008 full-length, Sparklace. The EP begins with a New Order-style synth pop number, "Eyes Won't Shut," and gets even stronger as Parks proceeds into electronica-tinged pop rock songs like "Running Family" and "Knight Conversation." For fans of Mum and Air.
